At carbonbased aviation we truly believe in the human potential to adapt and mitigate. Human Factors and Safety-II methods and processes are at the core of what we do.

 

We apply several Resilience Engineering concepts and promote deliberate practice for a qualitative and meaningful experience instead of flying hours only.

We provide guidance, insight and operational expertise to understand and enhance the human performance and its interface with the current and future highly automated aircraft.

Our aim is to cover the gap between the academic concepts and operational practice. We combine our academic knowledge in flight safety, human performance, management, culture and pilot training to our operational expertise as pilots flying the line and bring this academic-operational experience to you.

​

That´s human-centered flying expertise™.

Our name originates in Gene Roddenberry’s coined term “carbon-based units”, first used in 1979 when, in a Star Trek movie plot, an evolved version of the Voyager mission, launched by NASA in 1977, returns to Earth as an evolved machine with a conscientious mind, depicting the human crew aboard the USS Enterprise as “carbon-based units”, an allusion to the basic chemical element of human beings, the Carbon.
